This one's a bit cryptic; not sure what he's getting at:
LILLO and ELSPA,
London Stars and Champion Flying Children of the World,
in a Grand New Entertainment, not one used up.
The above names commanded the Greatest Success ever known.
Not paid for, but get paid for it by Proprietors.
The only LILLO and ELSPA. First LILLO and First ELSPA.
The extraordinary Children don’t change their Names,
the Father, PAUL DILLON, too well respected.
PAUL DILLON’s last New Successful Song,
entitled “The Broken-Hearted Cabman;
or, She’s bolted with a would-be Gymnast.”
Monday next, CIRCUS, BARNSLEY. Agent, A. Maynard.
The Era, Sunday 20 August 1876
